Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 piece large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with cooking spray to prevent the cookies from sticking.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Set the dry ingredients aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the batter and drop it into the center of the heated waffle iron. Close the waffle iron and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the cookie is set and golden brown.
Carefully remove the cookie from the waffle iron and transfer it to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Once the cookies are cool, dust them with powdered sugar for an optional decorative touch.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Enjoy your Pumpkin Waffle Cookie Treats with a warm cup of coffee or tea!
